Incoming Kindergarten Information

For the 2025-2026 School Year

A big welcome to our incoming kindergarten students and families! All students in Alameda Unified, including Franklin School held a Kindergarten information Night and kindergarten tours. These events were a chance for parents to hear about the Kindergarten program at their neighborhood school, receive information about the enrollment process for AUSD, and meet Kindergarten teachers and staff. If you missed it, that's okay! Here is the Presentation from that night and you can always call us with any questions. We request families new to Franklin school complete the Kindergarten Information Night Google Form so we can gather contact information for you and your child.

School Tours: Please join us for an in-person tour of Franklin School for incoming kindergarten families. Tours are scheduled for January 21st, January 23rd, January 29th, and February 4th at 8:45am and will include a campus tour and a Q&A session. If you have not signed up for a tour, please join the one on February 4th as the rest are full.

To be eligible for kindergarten next year, students must be 5 years of age by September 2, 2025 with a date of birth before 9/2/2020. More information about kindergarten enrollment can be found on the AUSD enrollment website. 

We look forward to partnering with your family soon! 

Thank you,

Lynnette Chirrick
